Based on the question below about a sleep study, if you or your significant other uses a Phillips DreamStation CPAP machine, has it been recalled, and how long did it take you to receive it?

I registered my machine in July or August of last year, I learned that mine is one of the ones being recalled/replaced, but as of today, I'm still waiting for a new unit. From what little I'm able to see on the recall web site, there's no way to find out a projected replacement date, or how many other people are ahead of me in this (long) queue.

So out of curiosity, if you have received a new machine, how long did it take? Thanks!

A friend of mine sells CPAPs. Phillips isn't manufacturing new ones yet and everybody else is pretty much out of stock. They're getting some from China but they aren't cheap (payment upfront by wire and hope the come in) and not nearly in the quantities to satisfy demand.

They're saying beginning of 2023 before they start getting machines again.

Got my new one after sending in the Philips Dreamstation 1.0 for the recall, they sent me Philips Dreamstation 2.0. Took about a month to receive. I was early though, did this around august last year.

Mine's been recalled. I haven't sent it in because I don't use it anymore and I never used the UV light cleaner on it.

Did you use SoClean to clean it? Did you store it in extreme heat for a long time? Honestly, you should be fine if not. I still use mine nightly due to never doing those 2 things.

sleeping like shite for a few months and waiting is better than getting cancer.

I am not going back to feeling miserable all day, I'll take my chances. Never used the ozone cleaners and have not had any issues with the machine what so ever.

I sent my info in a few months ago, haven't heard anything back from anyone. Covid was a crappy time for this recall to come out.

Registered in November 21 for a new one, received in mid-February. So 3.5 months. And to whoever said Phillips isn't making them, my new one is a Phillips.
